We have a chance but it’s not going to be easy. We are going to have to get a lot out of the existing QB and WR room we have.
Cristobal 150% takes the blame.for Gattis. He got rid of him, so now when players comes on visits, they are seeing Dawson's scheme.
I don’t know but someone else may know. There’s a part of me that hopes so for reasons of competent selection. There’s another part of me that hopes he had an epiphany and realized that repeating the same behavior without success is crazy.
Of course they want bags. Guess what??? Our bags can’t buy us the higher level WRs right now. The class isn’t done so there’s time but like you said, we are going to have to show it on the field with what we have. We need Dawson to be the guy who gets more with less at certain positions. Thankfully, he has some good pieces at TE, OL and hopefully enough at RB, minus injuries.
Its not that we cant by a WR, its just at what price you are buying. There is no Jordan Addison in the portal. We have man marginally better or same as what we have, so why break the bank if they are asking unreasonable prices. I agree if they stand firm and not overpay for players with average production. I like Henderson because he is a really good athlete, not because i think he is guaranteed to elevate the room. He could be Frank Ladson. Thats not a pay whatever he wants type player.
You right about that. Thankfully nowhere to go but up from last year
I wouldn’t pay Henderson a big bag either. They can’t get the level of WR they need. They need a big bag and at that point, there are better options for the better known and established kids with Coaches who have a good track record.
I was good with the take but you can’t throw big money at him. The UTSA kid? Yes , throw the bag
Yeah man I started in today with that statement. I don’t blame them one bit for not dropping a bag on Henderson bc he’s not an Addison or Zay Flowers. I go back to what got us here in year 1. I think they are going to have to overpay for an upper level to elite guy and I would for a more elite guy if they can… if they can convince a guy like that to come here as it’s going to be different with Dawson and it’s not going to be the same ole bro-style poo.
If they can get a high quality WR they need to try. I wouldn’t overpay for Henderson. He’s not worth it.
Agree, but that's not what 'insiders' were selling less than a week ago.
They’re not wrong in that he adds a dimension which helps stretch the field but he’s not a star or close to it. The insiders also said - at least one of two big insiders - essentially that Henderson wasn’t a situation where a big bag was expected to be involved and staff had no interest in that so that’s consistent with how he was viewed - as someone they’d like but they weren’t going to shell out for.
Yes, more accurate perspective than my DRUNKEN porst. He's probly just playing the game, and likely that all things being EQUAL ($), he's a 'Cane.
Oh I know he’s reputable and I’m not only referencing him but it’s “playbooking”. When other fans do it we take screenshots and laugh at it. We’re a 5 and 7 team with more holes than a sieve and a coach as you said who has a bad offensive rep, whether fair or unfair. We don’t have the luxury to be frugal.
I understand man. With Henderson, and $ being = I’d like to think that he’d rather be at home than let’s say Louisville but I don’t say that with any confidence, even if we matched them.
I don’t think they can overpay for Henderson level talent and accomplishments. I think they’ll have to overpay to get someone but they need to get someone who’s a real upgrade to what we have. Henderson would help but he’s not nearly accomplished enough to overpay for. I think they’d pay for a real difference making talent… or at least try to.
